Ryans MazdaSpeed 3 12_25_06.jpg

Our Son-in-law Ryan was surprised with a new MazdaSpeed3 for Christmas! We helped with the surprise by hiding the car in our garage until Christmas. Brandy and Ryan showed up some time after noon on Christmas day and as the garage door lifted it was fun to see the look on Ryan's face. First it was puzzlement, then it was shock and disbelief as he realized the new car was for Him! Even after Brandy dangled the keys in front of him he continued to stand there in numb amazement. His arms were full of other gifts he was carrying inside and he couldn't even put them down! So Brandy just placed the keys on top of the packages. He finally got over the shock and slowly made his way over to the new car, where he finally unwrapped it, opened the door, sat inside and just basked in the glow of that "new car" smell.

What a fun and memorable Christmas it was for all of us!

I am jealous of Brandy...getting gifts like that is fun, but giving them is the real blast. It sounds like a great Christmas for everyone invloved. Now you can all speed into the new year! Best wishes from both of us.
